Well done Honey

Here's a few more lines of the other one I posted

Neon on my naked skin, passing silhouettes
Of strange illuminated mannequins
Shall I stay here at the zoo
Or should I go and change my point of view

That’s the Alphaville Big in Japan. I just guessed it, didn’t I? Or didn’t it post?

You did - sorry hadn't refreshed the page!

Extra points, surely

Yes it did. Got lost with Needtoknow guessing the Clash!

Oh yes, extra points always accepted!🤣. I love that song.

I beg your pardon?!

Yes Honeyroar, more of a dance track

Big in Japan always makes me think of this one, even though it's not about Japan...
Tea, girls, warm, sweet
Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite

That has an air of a Pet Shop Boys song. Btw I'm trying for the 'most guessed wrong' award.

Morning!

When the day that lies ahead of me
Seems impossible to face
When someone else instead of me
Always seems to know the way
1970s

A lovely daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
Lovely day
Lovely day
Lovely day

Bill withers

Morning

Grrrr. So many I knew last night

Correct! 🙌🏼

I like the idea of most wrong guesses category. I think quite a few of us see ourselves winning that one!
Although, you're definitely a contender, needtoknow 😘💕

My outstanding ones...

Boys. Are you contemplating moving out somewhere?
Boys. Will you ever find the time?
(80s)

Do you still remember
How it used to be?
Feeling together, believing whatever
My love had said to me
(90s)

And I don’t want to see Needtoknow guessing them wrong to get herself a trophy!

@Honeyroar Do you still remember . . .

Spice Girls Viva Forever

Correct @CoffeeBeansGalore✅

And if you want it come and get it
Crying out loud
The love that I was giving you was never in doubt

90's
